CGAL 5.5.2 - 3D Point Set
CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector > Class Template Reference

#include <CGAL/Point_set_3/IO/XYZ.h>

Definition

template<typename Point, typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
class CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >

A collection of points with dynamically associated properties.

An instance of this class stores a set of indices of type Index, each representing a point. Properties can be associated to each point and can be retrieved using the index of the point. There are two particular properties that are hard coded by this class: the coordinates of the points and the normal vectors.

The coordinates of a point can be access using the index of the point and the member function point(). This property is always present. The normal vector of a point can be accessed using the index of the point and the normal() method. This property must be explicitly created.

All properties can be accessed as a range using the methods points(), normals(), and range() for points coordinates, normal vectors, and other properties respectively.

Removing a point with properties is achieved by moving its Index at the end of the container and keeping track of the number of removed elements. A garbage collection method must be called to really remove it from memory.

For convenience, all functions of the package Point Set Processing automatically creates the right named parameters if called with a CGAL::Point_set_3 object as argument.

std::pair<Vector_map, bool> CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::add_normal_map ( const Vector &  default_value = CGAL::NULL_VECTOR)

Convenience method that adds a normal property.

This method adds a property of type Vector and named normal.

Returns
Returns a pair containing the normal map and a Boolean that is true if the property was added and false if it already exists (and was therefore not added but only returned).

◆ add_property_map()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
template<class T >
std::pair<Property_map<T>, bool> CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::add_property_map ( const std::string &  name,

Template Parameters
Ttype of the property.
Parameters
nameName of the property.
tValue taken by the property on already created elements.
Returns
Returns a pair containing the property map and a Boolean that is true if the property was added and false if it already exists (and was therefore not added but only returned).

◆ cancel_removals()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
void CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::cancel_removals ( )

restores all removed points.

After removing one or several points, calling this method restores the point set to its initial state: points that were removed (and their associated properties) are restored.

Note
This method is only guaranteed to work if no point was inserted after the removal: otherwise, some points might not be restored.
If collect_garbage() was called after removal, the points are irremediably lost and nothing will be restored.

◆ clear()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
void CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::clear ( )

Clears the point set properties and content.

After calling this method, the object is the same as a newly constructed object. The additional properties (such as normal vectors) are also removed and must thus be re-added if needed.

◆ clear_properties()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
void CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::clear_properties ( )

Clears all properties created.

Returns
The iterator on the newly added element.
Note
If a reallocation happens, all iterators, pointers and references related to the container are invalidated. Otherwise, only the end iterator is invalidated, and all iterators, pointers and references to elements are guaranteed to keep referring to the same elements they were referring to before the call.

bool CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::join ( Point_set_3< Point, Vector > &  other)

merges other in the point set.

Shifts the indices of points of other by number_of_points() + other.number_of_points().

Copies entries of all property maps which have the same name in the point set and other. Property maps which are only in other are ignored.

Note
If copy_properties() with other as argument is called before calling this method, then all the content of other will be copied and no property will be lost in the process.
Garbage is collected in both point sets when calling this method.

The element is just marked as removed and is not erased from the memory. collect_garbage() should be called if the memory needs to be freed. The element can be recovered with cancel_removals().
The end() iterator is invalidated, it dereferences to a different element.

◆ remove_normal_map()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
bool CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::remove_normal_map ( )

Convenience method that removes the normal property.

Returns
Returns true if the property was removed and false if the property was not found.

◆ remove_property_map()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
template<class T >
bool CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::remove_property_map ( Property_map< T > &  prop)

removes the specified property.

Template Parameters
Ttype of the property.
Parameters
propThe property.
Returns
Returns true if the property was removed and false if the property was not found.

◆ reserve()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
void CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::reserve ( std::size_t  s)

increases the capacity of internal containers to be able to efficiently accommodate at least s elements

Parameters
sExpected final number of elements.
Note
This method does not change the content of the point set and is only used for optimization.

◆ resize()

template<typename Point , typename Vector = typename Kernel_traits<Point>::Kernel::Vector_3>
void CGAL::Point_set_3< Point, Vector >::resize ( std::size_t  s)

changes size of the point set.

Parameters
sTarget size of the point set
Note
If the given size is larger than the current size, the capacity of the internal container is extended. If there are element marked as removed, they may be overwritten. If the given size is smaller than the current size, garbage is collected and the container is resized.

◆ operator+=()

template<typename Point , typename Vector >
Point_set_3< Point, Vector > & operator+= ( Point_set_3< Point, Vector > &  ps,
Point_set_3< Point, Vector > &  other 
)
related

Append other at the end of ps.

Shifts the indices of points of other by ps.number_of_points() + other.number_of_points().

Copies entries of all property maps which have the same name in ps and other. Property maps which are only in other are ignored.

Note
Garbage is collected in both point sets when calling this method.
